SECTION ONE: INTRODUCTION TO QUARTER TURN AUTOMATION

General Information

More and more industrial processes are turning to automation both as a way of reducing cost and increasing capabilities. Automation allows an operator to control a near infinite number of valves/functions with speed and precision, from a centralized remote location. With increased software sophistication, entire systems can be operated and monitored by a central management system. The popularity of valve automation continues to increase; therefore, focus and understanding of these products is essential to our industry. From simple ‘on/off’ to complex ‘metering’ functions, the choices are almost limitless.

A quarter turn valve is any kind of valve that will travel from the fully open to the fully closed position in a 90o motion. Ball, butterfly and certain diverting/multi-port valves fall under this description. Ball and butterfly valves are two of the most commonly used valves in pipelines and feature large flow rates and quick on/off operation.

Without a power source the actuator itself is inadequate. Something needs to ‘drive’ the actuator so that it can cycle the valve. Two inexpensive, readily available, and easy to transport power options are compressed air (or hydraulic fluid), or electricity. The decision of which to use is determined by the cost of the unit (actuated valve), cost (or availability) of the power supply system, the system layout, performance requirements and operating conditions.

The three basic control functions available through quarter turn automation are:

Double Acting

This requires external power for each stroke. For example, power to open the valve, then power to close the valve.

Normally Open

Also referred to as ‘fail safe open’, the default position is open and the actuator requires power to close the valve.

Normally Closed

Also referred to as ‘fail safe closed’, the default position is closed and the actuator requires power to open the valve.

Overview

Pneumatic actuators are the most common choice for quarter turn plastic valves in process applications. Compressed air systems are readily available in any plant, and the cost of the actuator itself is generally lower than that of an electric unit with a comparable torque output. Typical quarter turn automation seldom requires positioning (something achieved more easily with an electric actuator), therefore the cycle life of a pneumatic unit will be substantially greater, and will be intrinsically safer than an electric actuator in volatile environments.

While there are many different kinds of pneumatic actuators, a rack and pinion style is the preferred choice within the plastic piping industry. This type of actuator is quite tough and rugged, and has a high cycle life. They generally have a compact, simple construction, and certain models can be quite light in weight. The design also allows the same basic actuator to be used as a double acting or (with minor additions) a spring return unit.

SECTION TWO: PNEUMATIC ACTUATORS

Spring Return (Air to Spring)

A spring return pneumatic actuator which requires an air stroke to either close or open the valve and contains a spring that forces the valve back to the opposite (default) position.

Normally Closed (Fail Safe Closed)

A spring return actuator mounted on the valve in such a way that at the end of the spring stroke the valve is closed. Air is required to open the valve. This will be the preferred choice if the valve is mostly in the closed position or if, in case of an emergency where the power to the actuator fails, the valve needs to close for safety reasons.

Normally Open (Fail Safe Open)

A spring return actuator mounted on the valve in such a way that at the end of the spring stroke the valve is open. Air is required to close the valve. This will be the preferred choice if the valve is mostly in the open position or if, in case on an emergency where the power to the actuator fails, the valve needs to open for safety reasons.

Double Acting (Air to Air)

A pneumatic actuator with no spring stroke. Air is required to both open and close the valve. In the absence of new input (compressed air) the unit will remain in the previous position (either open or closed).

Control Media

Most pneumatic actuators will also work with a clean, non-clogging hydraulic fluid; however compressed air is generally more readily available. As such, both the cleanliness of the supply air, and corrosion resistance of the internal components will contribute to a long, maintenance free actuator life. Ambient air will also be in contact with many components of an actuator, so selection of suitable corrosion resistant materials (e.g. high strength polymers and stainless/epoxy coated metals) may be necessary.

Depending on size and application, IPEX utilizes the UT Technopolymer or MT Aluminum Housing pneumatic actuators.

Compact Design

Our rack & pinion pneumatic actuator produces linear torque output in a compact design utilizing the same body and end caps for double acting and spring return units.

Corrosion Resistance

Double-Acting or Spring-Return housing are manufactured from a polyamide base material or an anodized aluminum utilizing high cycle life spring cartridges made with non-metallic materials (springs are epoxy coated).

Pre-Loaded Spring Cartridges

Epoxy coated special steel springs are pre-loaded with non-metallic materials. The stainless steel end cap fasteners are extra long to allow for spring relaxation. All parts are corrosion resistant.

Stainless Steel Pinions and Fasteners

All manufactured from high quality stainless steel.

Namur Mounting

Namur VDI/VDE 3845 and ISO 5211 dimensions on all sizes. No special blocks are required to mount solenoid valves, limit switches or positioners.

Blowout Proof Protection

Mechanically held in with our exclusive patent-pending flange design, pinions are 100% blowout proof ensuring safe and effective operation.

ISO 5211 Output Drive

Standard on all pneumatic actuators, the lower pinion comes standard as a double-square female output drive according to the ISO 5211 standard. Optional double-d shafts are available upon request.

Rugged Tooth Design

The pinion teeth are engaged the full length and stroke of the piston. The pinion height allows manual override without disturbing the indicated positions.

Solenoid Connection

Solenoid valve connection according to VDI/VDE 3845 made with an insert in alloy UNI 5076 (ASTM B179) coated with high corrosive resistance material; air connections are 1/4” NPT.

Versatile Operating Media

Air (lubricated if possible), Hydraulic oil or water, minimum of 40psi pressure (1 bar) and maximum of 120psi pressure (8 bar).

Working Temperature

Standard working temperature range of -4°F to 176°F (-20°C to 80°C).

Available:Low temperature Silicone seals -55°F (-48°C)

High temperature Viton seals to 250°F (121°C) continuous; 300°F (149°C) cyclic

Degree of Travel

The standard angle of rotation is 90°. Additional travel rotations of 120°, 135°, 150° and 180° are available. MT aluminum housing actuators feature dual travel stops that provide for ± 10° stroke registration on both the opening and closing phases of the actuator stroke.

Honed Bore for High Cycle Life

Extruded aluminum body is internally machined and lapped to exact specifications. Honing prevents dry spots from forming within the actuator bore and therefore eliminates premature seal failure – a critical aspect to long cycle life. All internal and external surfaces are hard anodized for corrosion resistance, with all units permanently lubricated at the factory with non-silicone grease.

High Cycle Bearings

Shaft bearings isolate the pinion gear from the housing and support the shaft for high cycle applications.

High Visibility Position Indication

External open/close indicator is standard, available for all the rotations.

Traceability

All units are serial number stamped for traceability back to the manufacturing date, time, and personnel.

Quality Assurance

All units are seal tested throughout the cycle of the actuator on highly sensitive electronic equipment.

Double Acting Actuators

IPEX actuators have a standard angle of rotation of 90˚. Additional travel rotations of 120˚, 135˚, 150˚, and 180˚ are available. MT models feature dual travel stops that provide for + 10˚ stroke registration on both the opening and closing phases of the actuator stroke.

Spring Return Actuator Terminology

1. Air Stroke When air is supplied to the actuator, the pistons

compress the springs. The greater the spring compression, the less torque output the actuator can supply.

2. Spring Stroke When air is removed from the actuator, the stored

energy in the springs forces the pistons inward. At full compression, the spring is at its maximum torque output. This is the Spring Start. When springs are uncompressed, this is the Spring End.

3. Fail Position IPEX actuators can be preset for fail closed or fail

open operation.

Overview

Although slightly more expensive than pneumatics, electric actuators have certain desirable benefits. They are the preferred choice when cycle time is an issue, as a quick closing pneumatically actuated valve could cause a damaging pressure surge condition (water hammer). The use of an electric actuator may also be preferred when the distance from the power source is considerable. The friction losses in long runs of compressed air line may result in reduced efficiency and/or additional compressor stations.

In addition, electric actuators are the preferred (if not the only) choice when a quarter turn valve like a multi-port is used. In this case, it is possible that the travel required is not just 0° to 90° but 0° to 90° to 180°. A rack and pinion actuator would need four separate pistons and a multiplicity of related air chambers, whereas this is easily accomplished with an electric unit.

Most electric actuators have a cam/limit switch arrangement which allows the unit to be set up for a variety of rotations. The two standard limit switches can be used to provide a remote location with an open or closed signal. A multitude of voltages both for AC and DC current are also typically available.

SECTION THREE: ELECTRIC ACTUATORS

IP Rating

IP stands for ‘Ingress Protection’. An IP number is used to specify the environmental protection of enclosures around electronic equipment. These ratings are determined by specific tests. The IP number is composed of two numbers, the first referring to the protection against solid objects and the second against liquids. The higher the number, the better the protection.

Nema Rating

Electric actuators are often supplied with a NEMA 4 or equivalent rated enclosure. This allows the use of the actuated valve in outdoor applications. More demanding environments may require a greater rating (e.g. 4X for corrosion proof, 7 for explosion proof, etc.)

Declutchable Manual Override

Most electric units will have a way to manually rotate the actuator’s shaft (thus opening or closing the valve). Depending on the size of the actuator, this may be a very difficult if not impossible operation. A declutchable override will allow the manual operation of the valve without having to fight the resistance of the actuator’s winding.

Reversible

A reversible actuator will travel in one direction (e.g. clockwise) to open (or close), and then will reverse its direction of travel to reach the opposite function. Although more expensive than unidirectional units, reversible actuators are preferable. Reversing the travel will wear the valve seat in an even way resulting in much greater cycle life of the actuated valve.

Cycle Time

The travel time that an electric actuator employs from beginning to end of a 90° rotation.

Duty Cycle

The percentage of time that an electric actuator can be energized versus the time it needs to be de-energized. Exceeding the actuator cycle time will result in the failure of the unit due to over-heating. Many units have a standard duty cycle of 25% while others may be as great as 75%.

Features

Standard Features

Enclosure

Heater

The heater is activated once the actuator is powered and when the temperature inside the housing falls below 77°F.

Limit Switches

2 SPDT limit switches allow for independent fine tuning of the open and closed positions. 2 auxillary limit switches are standard.


Allows the valve to be cycled ‘on’ or ‘off’ during a power failure, without having to overcome the resistance of the actuator’s winding.

Holding Power

Actuators are able to hold 150% of the rated torque, in either direction, while power is removed from the control.

Duty Cycle

Actuators have a 75% duty cycle (50% for VB015), allowing for high cycle applications.

Torque Limiter

Will shut the actuator off in stall conditions to protect the motor.

8. Cycle the valve open and close to ensure that the cycling performance is adequate. If adjustment is required, place the valve in the closed position, loosen the union nuts, remove the valve from the system, and then continue from Step 3.

9. Engage the Dual Block® system by affixing the molded piece (16, sizes 1/2” to 2”) to the side of the valve body or by turning the red knob (27, sizes 2-1/2” to 4”) to the locked position. This feature will prevent back-off of the union nuts during operation.


Installation Procedures

1. Remove the union nuts (part #13 on previous page) and slide them onto the pipe.

2. Please refer to the appropriate connection style sub-section:

a. For socket style, solvent cement or fuse the end connectors (12) onto the pipe ends. For correct solvent cementing procedure, please refer to the section entitled, “Joining Methods – Solvent Cementing” in the IPEX Industrial Technical Manual Series, “Volume I: Vinyl Process Piping Systems”. Be sure to allow sufficient cure time before continuing with the valve installation.

b. For threaded style, thread the end connectors (12) onto the pipe ends. For correct joining procedure, please refer to the section entitled, “Joining Methods – Threading” in the IPEX Industrial Technical Manual Series, “Volume I: Vinyl Process Piping Systems”.

3. All quarter turn automated valves are tested for proper operation before leaving the factory. Adjustment of the seat stop carrier should not be necessary. However, if adjustment is required, ensure that the valve is in the closed position then remove the insert tool (1) from the handle (2), supplied loose. For sizes 2-1/2” to 4”, use the tool that accompanies the valve. Line up the moldings on the tool with the slots in the carrier. Tighten or loosen to the desired position then replace the tool on the handle.

4. Ensure that the valve is in the closed position, and that the socket o-rings (10) are properly fitted in their grooves. If anchoring is required, insert the bracket bushings (25) into the bottom of the valve (sizes 1/2” to 2” only). Carefully place the valve in the system between the two end connections and fix if necessary.

5. Tighten the union nut on the side opposite to that which is marked “ADJUST”. Hand tightening is typically sufficient to maintain a seal for the maximum working pressure. Over-tightening may damage the threads on the valve body and/or the union nut, and may even cause the union nut to crack.

6. Tighten the union nut on the side marked “ADJUST”. Tightening the union nuts in this order results in the best possible valve performance due to optimum positioning and sealing of the ball and seat support system.

7. Connect pneumatic or electric connections according to provided diagrams.

Assembly

Note: Before assembling the valve components, it is advisable to lubricate the o-rings with a water soluble lubricant. Be sure to consult the “IPEX Chemical Resistance Guide” and/or other trusted resources to determine specific lubricant-rubber compatibilities.

1. Replace the stem o-rings (3 or 18), body o-ring (9), ball seat o-rings (8), ball seats (5), and bushings (19, sizes 2-1/2” to 4”) in their proper positions.

2. Insert the stem (4 or 20) into position from inside the valve body (7). On sizes 2-1/2” to 4”, insert the lower stem (21) as well.

3. On sizes 2-1/2” to 4”, replace the actuation adapter plate and affix in position using the bolts (11), washers (14), and nuts (15). Replace the caps (23) over the nuts.

4. Replace the stem extension, if applicable.

5. Carefully insert the ball (6) into the valve body, taking care not to score or damage the outer surface. Ensure that the actuator and ball position correspond to the same operating position.

6. Insert the threaded carrier (11 or 16) and tighten into the valve body. Use the wrench tool to sufficiently tighten.

7. Replace the actuator, if removed, and affix in position using screws (22) installed horizontally (1/2” to 2”) or bolts (3), washers (14), nuts (15), and caps (23) (2-1/2” to 4”).

7. Place the end connectors (12) into the union nuts (13), then thread onto the valve body taking care that the socket o-rings remain properly fitted in their grooves.

8. Engage the Dual Block® system by affixing the molded piece (16, sizes 1/2” to 2”) to the side of the valve body or by turning the red knob (27, sizes 2-1/2” to 4”) to the locked position.


Valves Maintenance

Disassembly

1. If removing the valve from an operating system, isolate the valve from the rest of the line. Be sure to depressurize and drain the valve and isolated branch. It is recommended that all actuators be de-activated before servicing the valve to avoid injury.

2. If necessary, remove actuator connections and detach the valve from the support structure by disassembling the connections to the bracket on the optional bottom of the valve body (7).

3. Unlock the Dual Block® system by compressing the two ends of the molded piece (16, sizes 1/2” to 2”) or by turning the red knob (27, sizes 2-1/2” to 4”) to the unlocked position. Loosen both union nuts (13) and drop the valve out of the line. If retaining the socket o-rings (10), take care that they are not lost when removing the valve from the line.

4. Remove the actuator, if necessary, from the valve by removing the screws (22) located horizontally across from each other (sizes 1/2” to 2”). On sizes 2-1/2” to 4”, remove the actuator by loosening and removing the bolts (3), washers (14), nuts (15), and caps (23).

5. Ensure the valve is in the closed position. If it is not, rotate the ball using the exposed stem or stem extension, making sure not to damage. Line up the moldings on the wrench tool (1, sizes 1/2” to 2”) with the slots in the carrier (found on the side marked “ADJUST”). Loosen and remove the carrier (11 or 16).

6. Carefully press the ball (6) out of the valve body, taking care not to score or damage the outer surface.

7. Press the stem (4 or 20) into the valve body from above. On sizes 2-1/2” to 4”, remove the lower stem (21) by pushing it into the valve body from below.

8. The stem o-rings (3 or 18), body o-ring (9), ball seats (5), ball seat o-rings (8), and bushings (19, sizes 2-1/2” to 4”) can now be removed and/or replaced.

Note: It is not typically necessary to disassemble the Dual Block® components (sizes 2-1/2” to 4”). It is not necessary to remove the actuator from the valve unless the stem requires servicing or replacement. If possible, leave actuator attached to valve during servicing.

1. For socket and threaded style connections, remove the union nuts (part #13 on previous page) and slide them onto the pipe. For flanged connections, remove the union nut / flange assemblies from the valve (Figure 1).

2. Please refer to the appropriate connection style subsection:

a. For socket style, solvent cement the end connectors (12) onto the pipe ends. For correct joining procedure, please refer to the section entitled, “Joining Methods – Solvent Cementing” in the IPEX Industrial Technical Manual Series, “Volume I: Vinyl Process Piping Systems”. Be sure to allow sufficient cure time before continuing with the valve installation.

b. For threaded style, thread the end connectors (12) onto the pipe ends. For correct joining procedure, please refer to the section entitled, “Joining Methods – Threading” in the IPEX Industrial Technical Manual Series, “Volume I: Vinyl Process Piping Systems” (Figure 2).

3. All quarter turn automated valves are tested for proper operation before leaving the factory. Adjustment of the seat stop carrier should not be necessary. However, If adjustment is required, remove the insert tool (1) from the handle (2) provided. Line up the moldings on the tool with the slots in the seat supports. Tighten or loosen to the desired position then replace the tool on the handle. For correct alignment of the ball and seat support system, adjustment should begin with the center port.

4. Ensure that the socket o-rings (10) are properly fitted in their grooves then carefully place the valve in the system between the end connections. If anchoring is required, fix the valve to the supporting structure via the integral mounting flange on the bottom of the valve body (7).

5. Tighten the three union nuts. Hand tightening is typically sufficient to maintain a seal for the maximum working pressure. Over-tightening may damage the threads on the valve body and/or the union nut, and may even cause the union nut to crack (Figure 2).

6. Check the installation of the dedicated lock nut device DUAL BLOCK® (26) on the valve body (Figure 3).


8. Cycle the valve open and close to ensure that the cycling performance is adequate. If adjustment is required, loosen the union nuts, remove the valve from the system, and then continue from Step 3.

Assembly


1. Properly fit the stem o-rings (3) in the grooves on the stem (4), then insert the stem from the inside of the valve body (7).

2. Line up the markings on the stem with the ports in the valve body.

3. Replace the backing o-ring (8) and seat (5) at the back of the valve body.

4. Insert the ball (6) into the valve body while ensuring that the ports line up with the markings on the stem. Ensure that the actuator and ball position correspond to the same operating position

5. Ensure that all body o-rings (9), backing o-rings, and seats are properly fitted on the three seat supports (11). Starting with the center port, tighten each support into the valve body using the insert tool (1).

6. Replace the actuator, if removed, and affix in position using screws (22) located horizontally across from each other.

7. Properly fit the socket o-rings (10) in their respective grooves.

8. Place the end connectors (12) into the union nuts (13), then thread onto the valve body taking care that the socket o-rings remain properly fitted in their grooves.

Disassembly

1. If removing the valve from an operating system, isolate the valve from the rest of the system. Be sure to depressurize and drain the isolated branch and valve before continuing.

2. If necessary, remove actuator connections and detach the valve from the support structure

3. Unlock the Dual Block® system (Figure 3) by compressing the lever (26). Loosen the three union nuts (13) and drop the valve out of the line. If retaining the socket o-rings (10), take care that they are not lost when removing the valve from the line.

4. Remove the actuator, if necessary, from the valve by removing the screws (22) located horizontally across from each other fastening the upper and lower portions of the actuation pad.

5. To disassemble, rotate the ball to the appropriate position using the provided handle (2).

4. Remove the insert tool (1) from the handle provided, then line up the moldings on the tool with the slots in the seat supports (11). Loosen and remove all three seat supports from the valve body (7).

5. Remove the ball (6) from the valve body while taking care not to score or damage the outer surface.

6. To remove the stem, push it into the valve body from above.

7. Remove the seats (5), backing o-rings (8), and body o-rings (9) from the seat supports.

8. Remove the seat and backing o-ring from the inside of the valve body.

9. Remove the stem o-rings (3).

10. The valve components can now be checked for problems and/or replaced.

Note: It is not necessary to remove the actuator from the valve unless the stem requires servicing or replacement. If possible, leave actuator attached to valve during servicing.

VKR Series Regulating Ball Valves

Designed to meet the requirements of the most severe industrial applications, IPEX VKR Series Regulating Ball Valves combine the reliability and safety features of IPEX VKD ball valves with a newly designed profiled ball. The patented ball design provides linear flow regulation throughout its full range of operation even when the valve is open just a few degrees. Like a traditional shut-off ball valve, the VKR has a 90° operating angle which allows the use of a standard quarter-turn actuator, ensuring perfect alignment and reducing the torque required for actuation. The patented Dual Block® mechanism locks the union nuts in place preventing back-off during severe service conditions.

Installation

1. For non-lugged style sizes 1-1/2” through 8”, push the inserts (27) into the body holes according to the position chart below.

2. Ensure that the length of the bolts is sufficient for the size of valve being installed. Due to the varying designs of plastic flanges, there is no recommended minimum length. However, a length that results in at least 5 exposed threads on each side should be sufficient.

3. Please refer to the appropriate application sub-section:

a. For typical inline installation, ensure that the disc is in the partially closed position then carefully insert the valve into the piping system between the two flanges. Insert the bolts, washers, and nuts (if necessary), then hand tighten. Take care to properly line up the valve and flanges as any misalignment may cause leakage.

b. For lugged version end of line installation, ensure that the disc is in the partially closed position then carefully position the valve on the flange. Insert the bolts, and washers, then hand tighten. Take care to properly line up the valve and flange as any misalignment may cause leakage.


5. To avoid damage to the primary gasket, cycle the valve to the open position before tightening the bolts. For correct joining procedure, please refer to the section entitled, “Joining Methods – Flanging” in the IPEX Industrial Technical Manual Series, “Volume I: Vinyl Process Piping Systems”. The bolts should be tightened in an even pattern to the nominal torque in the table below. These torque ratings are sufficient to maintain a watertight seal at the maximum rated operating pressure.

Note: If the process media is dirty or contains suspended particles, it is advisable to install the valve in an orientation in which the shaft is not vertical (see diagrams). Over time, particles may collect at the bottom of the valve posing a threat to the seal between the disc, liner, and shaft.

Note: All quarter turn automated valves are tested for proper operation before leaving the factory.

Disassembly

1. If removing the valve from an operating system, isolate the valve from the rest of the system. Be sure to depressurize and drain the isolated branch before continuing. It is recommended that all actuators be de-activated before servicing the valve to avoid injury.

2. Cycle the valve to a partially open position then loosen each bolt holding the valve to the pipe flange(s). Please refer to the section entitled, “Joining Methods – Flanging” in the IPEX Industrial Technical Manual Series, “Volume I: Vinyl Process Piping Systems” for a recommended bolt tightening pattern diagram. Follow the same pattern when disassembling the flanged joint(s) then carefully remove the valve from the line.

1. Ensure that the length of the bolts is sufficient for the size of valve being installed. Due to the varying designs of plastic flanges, there is no recommended minimum length. However, a length that results in at least 5 exposed threads on each side should be sufficient.

2. Please refer to the appropriate application sub-section:

a. For typical inline installation, ensure that the disc is in the partially closed position then carefully insert the valve into the piping system between the two flanges. Insert the bolts, washers, and nuts (if necessary), then hand tighten. Take care to properly line up the valve and flanges as any misalignment may cause leakage.

b. For lugged version end of line installation, insert the necessary steel lugs into the valve body. Ensure that the disc is in the partially closed position then carefully position the valve on the flange. Insert the bolts, and washers, then hand tighten. Take care to properly line up the valve and flange as any misalignment may cause leakage.


4 . To avoid damage to the primary gasket, cycle the valve to the open position before tightening the bolts. For correct joining procedure, please refer to the section entitled, “Joining Methods – Flanging” in the IPEX Industrial Technical Manual Series, “Volume I: Vinyl Process Piping Systems”. The bolts should be tightened in an even pattern to the nominal torque in the table below. These torque ratings are sufficient to maintain a watertight seal at the maximum rated operating pressure.

Note: End of line installation will cause the maximum rated pressure to be reduced to the values listed in the table below. If the process media is dirty or contains suspended particles, it is advisable to install the valve in an orientation in which the shaft is not vertical (see diagrams). Over time, particles may collect at the bottom of the valve posing a threat to the seal between the disc, liner, and shaft. 0° normal service 45° dirty fluids 90° suspended particles

Valve Maintenance

Disassembly

1. If removing the valve from an operating system, isolate the valve from the rest of the system. Be sure to depressurize and drain the isolated branch before continuing. It is recommended that all actuators be de-activated before servicing the valve to avoid injury

2. Cycle the valve to a partially open position then loosen each bolt holding the valve to the pipe flange(s). Please refer to the section entitled, “Joining Methods – Flanging” in the IPEX Industrial Technical Manual Series, “Volume I: Vinyl Process Piping Systems” for a recommended bolt tightening pattern diagram. Follow the same pattern when disassembling the flanged joint(s) then carefully remove the valve from the line.

Speed Control

Provide infinite variation of control of air flow at an acceptable sound level on the exhaust ports of air valves with complete safety. An external adjustment screw accurately varies orifice opening from closed to full flow as required. The final position is then locked into place by a lock nut mechanism. Objectionable exhaust air noise is eliminated by the surrounding sleeve of sintered bronze.

Exhaust Filter

Utilize porous sintered bronze filter element secured to Brass pipe fittings. They are used to diffuse air and muffle noise from the exhaust ports of air valves to an acceptable level within OSHA noise requirements. These mufflers can also be used as filters, preventing corrosive atmosphere from entering the actuator thus extending the actuators working life.

Limit Switch Box

Manufactured completely in techno-polymer with stainless steel fasteners and Nema 4, 4x rating, these products are corrosion resistant and suitable for the most corrosive environments.

The operating position of the switches can be easily changed by adjusting the high resolution spline cams manually and independently with the need for additional tools. The cams are spring backed and will not be affected by normal vibration.

Each box is equipped with two (2) standard 1/2” NPT conduit entries and one (1) terminal strip with 8 contact points.

Comes standard with a high visibility beacon, offering clear location of the current valve position.

The switchbox also comes standard with stainless steel captive cover bolts; an added feature to ensure long life of the switchbox.
